▤▤▤ I'm officailly a FULL-TIME streamer!
It's officially official. Once I upload STORY TIME from getting back from EVO/SGDQ, one of my announcmeents was going full-time! I recall August 2014, 140 subs, saying that full time required over double the support and even then, I was insecure about what that meant. After preparing background projects since May, talking to tons of speedrunning friends at SGDQ, I am confident that this is the right path.

I finally have TIME to pursue the interests I've always had. Right now is an exciting time to be a sub/viewer. I'll be transitioning to full-time throughout August and should be finalized by September.

▤▤▤ #DDD (Dancepad DDR Daily) & new schedule begins Monday!
One of the first changes w/ FTS (full time streaming) is expanding my game selection. Yoshi is dope, but burn out, fatigue, and mental health seriously warrant branching out. At minimum, take what I learned from doing Yoshi and apply it to other games. Perhaps come back in 6-12mo, and be even better?!

Ever since 2005, when starting DDR, I've wanted to be great. I've done DDR on Dancepad casually as an afterparty thing, but it becomes -the- thing starting next week.

New HDMI-output 60fps camcorder, new angle + dancepad scene; improved from 30fps double webcam ghetto set-up! I'll come live by noon, do DDR for an hour, work on endurance, boost it to 2hr, then work on form, cross-stepping, balance, & no-bar. Targetted practice like speedrunning. Kill stream, go shower/do RL and come back w/ regular game streams for remainder of day. I'll exeriment w/ what times work best, whether a 2hr break or 4hr break works. But there'll be 2 seperate streams each day. DDR and non-DDR!

▤▤▤ Sub Emote overhaul progress!
! -- check July #3 newsletter for details on 12 new emotes being comissioned by goddess Jisu~

Jisu updated me saying she's giving the emotes full attention after Super Smash Con is over. So I should expect concept sketches by mid-August, and once they're finalized move forward w/ inking/coloring. I will  share w/ subs the concepts that are approved and finalized at that point!

Once emotes are done, definitely some point in September, expect hype Photoshop Streams to finalize them at emote size. And even more chill PS Streams to overhaul info widgets below video player. I'll detail those plans in a later September newsletter~

▤▤▤ FamilyMovienight dates
To make up for no FMN in June, August is a double-feature! Both movies play into a bigger theme. Some of you may think you know Eddie Murphy, but you don't. I'm gonna give you the savage stand-up that he's a god for from the 80's!

• Friday, August 21 = Delirious (1983) + preshow honoring Murphy's best movies + Try it Out: Regular Show (2eps)
• Friday, September 4th = Raw (1988) + preshow honroing Murphy's shit movies + Try it Out: Adventure Time?

▤▤▤ I'm attending PAX Prime! No streams Aug 25-Sept 1
Nintendo World Championships & E3 were a huge surprise 10-day notice for me. I've had PAX Prime planned since Feb 2015. Excited to go check out a public-attend mass gaming event like this. New experience and able to meet more streamers/network and better understand what I want to do with my stream.

I'll detail more as it gets closer~

▤▤▤ Announcements of announcements!
I announced during end of STORY TIME that I'll reveal my big background project before leaving for PAX Prime. But there's another smaller thing happening before then too. Here's the breakdown of dates:

• August 23 = Small Announcement (still legit tho)
• August 24 = Big Announcement; revealing Background project only possible w/ being full-time!

Exciting times ahead! :D
